Judgemental People

What I have the worst time with on here is that people say things like, "If people are saying something like this about ________, I know what you're saying about me."

Ummm... no, ya don't.

Stop the drama, people. This isn't highschool.

*phew* it would be awkward to be 40 yrs old in highschool... :laugh: :noway:

So here's the truth - Judge me. If I am doing something but for my health, CALL ME ON IT. Don't say "Oh it's ok, its fine you just ate a cheeseburger for the 6th straight day in a row"

I wanna hear things like "Put down the damn burgers and get your *kitten* to a gym!"

I wish I could be like this. I have friends who eat McDonalds every day (or some other junk), claim they worked off 700 cals, eat 200 cals the next day... It is totally frustrating. I should prob grow up and delete them or say something, huh?

Advice is just that. Advice. You don't have to listen to it if you don't think it's good advice. Even if someone has a personal problem with you, why would you get all offended about a troll on the internet? It doesn't affect your real life!

Thicken up your skin. Seriously, if you can't take a little bit of controversy on the internet, how the hell do you function in real life? Do you live in a bubble where no one can hurt your feelings?

Stop the drama, people. This isn't highschool.

Perfectly worded.

Lets see some honesty people. And when you get honest advice, realize that they aren't giving you this advice to hurt your feelings or be mean. The advice is just to try to help. If you disagree with it.... don't follow it! You don't need to get personally offended and snap at people.

I agree however large hungry people tend to be short tempered. While it's true that some people live to be offended and wont let up until you insult them so they can claim their victim card, I honestly believe that the occasional temper flair-up is just as natural a by-product of lifestyle change and weight loss as sweat.

You just have to take the absurdly offended with the same understanding as the absurdly judgmental folks that tend to offend them. Deny yourself enough calories and take away our oreo's and we're all ready to bite the head off of something now and then,.

If what you say, or how you say it, is offensive to some (or many) people, then that's as much a lesson to learn as anything else. You get feedback, and you can either accept it, own it, and improve, or you can say that it's the responsibility of all those other people to toughen up. If people aren't receiving the message you're trying to convey, then maybe you're simply not conveying it, and placing the blame on them is a copout.

And some people are overly sensitive, and read everything as applying to them personally in a negative way. That's their issue. If one of those people is offended by something that they misread or misinterpreted as hurtful to them, then umm... toughen up. Some people are whiny. Just like they have to put up with people not catering to their delicate ego, everyone else has to put up with the fact that they're going to be offended by things that no one else would find offensive.

There's a HUGE difference between HONESTY and RUDENESS!

yes.

Oversensitivity is such a problem with the world right now. Everyone bends over backwards to please the very small group of people who b*tch and moan over something. People need to stop being such p*ssies and learn how to deal.

And THIS is where proper punctuation, spelling and grammar are important!! If you aren't able to tell the intent through the way you read and write, it's a slippery slope to anarchy.

Gotta be honest. I can fall victim to grammar nazi too but I've since tried to avoid that. Fact is, when you do that, you're just being combative. Typical from a giants fan

One word...Touche :flowerforyou:

Trolling is so much easier than judging. I feel it puts me at the highest echelon of douchebaggery.

^this

Some people happen to not understand the difference between facts and opinion. Facts are just that, facts. If the proven results from empirical tests happens to hurt your feelings, then you have more issues than just with your weight. Some opinions have more value than others. Part of being supportive is letting people know when they are wrong.

I'm over the whiney people lately. How do you survive your everyday life when you can't even handle the contrasting opinions of others on a website? Lame!

Um, the internet is the meaning of life. Duh.

It seems to be the only way of life to many.

Srs bzns ppl.

That literally made my eyes cross. And when one of my employees sends out an email to the rest of our team (most of my employees are of the teenage persuasion)... in that ridiculous text speak, I slap myself on the hand for hiring them.
